I fell asleep in paradise and I woke up in a parking lot in a rental car at a Walmart in West Texas
It's all happened before, but just not to me
There's a time and place for everything, and this is not the place
Start the engine and pack your bags
[Chorus]
I've been away in a two piece suit locked in a hotel coming to pieces on time
Believe me, you better believe me
It's real life, like they told you about, like they stuffed in your mouth and told you to keep it all down
Believe me, you better believe me
It seems like all my friends are somewhere having babies or masters degrees
When did they sign up for that?
I started late, I guess I'll never stop. But I have got a backpack, so I can end up anywhere
Where did I go wrong this time?
[Repeat Chorus]
Did you see that cla**ic movie about the drive across America
Where they're trying to chase love, or gold, or freedom?
I think I've seen it too, I don't know how it ends
But somehow I don't think it really mattered in the first place
Maybe I'll find out next time...
[Repeat Chorus]
[Coda]
Believe me, you'd better believe me
Believe me, you'd better believe me
